Akira Single Palm - Dashing Elbow

I'm having lots of trouble performing this move...
Single Palm - Dashing Elbow
(guard or hit)
can anybody explain me the right way to do it?Thank you.

 

The elbow is only possible if the Single Palm connects, either hit or blocked. You can not do the elbow follow up if the single palm whiffs. The key to timing the second is pushing it just a split second after the single palm hits. Don't try to anticipate the hit, rather react to the stun animation of the character, and push it when your opponent starts to flinch from the hit. Another way to think about it is to input the second right when Akira finishes grunting from doing the Single Palm. Good luck, it's an useful move.

Another way to figure it out.

For a truly scientific method to figuring out the timing for this move (or any move). On your PS2EVO go into command training, turn on the command display "Type A" (I can't remeber but I think it's the fourth or fifth menu item when you after you hit start). Now move up to the first menu item (the command list) -- scroll through the list until you find the single palm-elbow combo, and hit X to get the CPU to demonstrate the move for you. You'll notice that the CPUs inputs show up on the command display.

Watch it a couple of times making note of the frame delay between the first P and the second P -- then practice with the command display on until you can get the move with the same delay (give or take a frame of two) between your button presses.

That's how I practice Lion's impossible f,db+P+GPPP throw.
